Palin: Obama Not Qualified to Be Commander-in-Chief

October 03, 2008 2:02 PM

ABC News' Teddy Davis, Rigel Anderson, and Arnab Datta Report: Speaking to Fox News on Friday, Sarah Palin indicated for the first time that she does not consider Barack Obama qualified to be commander in chief and sharply criticized him for saying last year that U.S. troops in Afghanistan are "just air raiding villages and killing civilians."

Calling Obama "reckless," Palin said that where she comes from Obama's remarks "disqualify someone from consideration for the next commander-in-chief."

"Some of his comments that he's made about the war, that I think, in my world disqualify someone from consideration for the next commander-in-chief," said Palin. "Some of the comments he's made about Afghanistan, what we are doing there, 'just air raiding villages and killing civilians.' That's reckless."

How dare they say he's not qualified to be elevated to a high position.

He could be Chief Towel Boy in a high-class brothel.

Thanks Ernest.

McCain said recently the same, in fact I think it was at last weeks debate.

They need to weave in the birth certificate issue that BHO has. The media will bite.

Bobomba has two choices: ignore her and look weak or restart the ‘qualifications’ argument w/ the GOP vp candidate. Haha.

Flip the ticket and turn her loose. Love to get her out from under McCain’s thumb and let Sarah be Sarah.

She must have learned a lot watching her son play hockey. She hit EVERYONE that touched the puck last night. Biden was getting his a$$ handed to him in front of the whole nation, she dropped several nukes on Obama including his "air raiding villages" comment, and then skated over to the bench and smacked Michelle Obama when she said "I have always been proud of my country".

McCain, get out of the way and let her drop the gloves. She thrives on it.

The Taliban are using civilians as shields. Of course some are going to be killed or wounded. But Obama said that’s ALL our brave men and women are doing in Afghanistan, killing civilians by air strikes. Obama is a disgusting person.

Keep pounding, Sarah. Love it!

At least the bottom of the ticket is coming out tough.

I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about how skillfully Palin painted Obama as a dangerous and anti-military extremist, I know this resonated and will make people take a second look at Obama.

She smacked Obama around relentlessly and without mercy the way she did at the convention, the left is besides themselves....again.

I thought Obama meant our troops were bombing civilians in Chicago, New Illinois?

That’s where most of the deaths are.

Is New Illinois the 54th or 55th state?

Says Marxist Obama..."We've gotta get the job done there," said Obama, referring to the U.S. mission in Afghanistan, "and that requires us to have enough troops so that we're not just air raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous problems there."

What a military-hating thing to say.

That Sarah Palin takes this America-hating Marxist on, toe-to-toe, shows her convictions and her courage.
